Those are fuscias - never had them, but an old friend had a bit of an obsession about them. I prefer the first with the paler green at the top and some of the stalks in full. The difference between the two cameras is quite marked

I like 2nd shot . I probably have around 10 different Fuscias in back yard . Humming birds like them .

My wife has baskets of these hanging on our front porch every summer. They tend to attract hummingbirds.

Lots of fuchsias around here, but never seen a hummingbird, alas.

 

[Roy Morales]

Hummingbirds seem to like the red / purple fuchsias better than the white / purple - white / red ones .

The difference is quite marked isnt it? For this subject I prefer the first as the second looks a little coarse with the compressed tonal range.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Agreed. I was quite surprised myself.
